'We ' are Soponar Radu and Soponar Radu jr. from Satu Mare (Romania)..
We have been breeding rollers such as Jucatori de Galati (Galati Rollers) since '98 , Oriental Rollers since 2008 and show pigeons as Jacobins and Frillbacks.Until 2009 we've bread Birmingham Rollers as well but I had to give up this breed because of lack of free time (I am at university at Cluj) and space.
The Birmingham Rollers were bread from english birds and hungarian birds. I've kept a pair in case I want to breed them again sometimes.
The Galati Rollers are from two different families: one of flyers (bigger birds which almoust never roll) and one of very good roller birds (classical look). From this combination I am hoping to breed the ultimate high flying Galati Roller , which can fly a few hours and rolls tight , deep and often. Through the years we came to the conclusion that the main downside of this breed is thei stubbourness in comparison with the BR's which are very easy to work with.
The current medium flight time is between 40-60 minutes and 2 hours for some individuals , these are the ones we desire.
We breed the show pigeons because of the colour and beauty they add to the loft ! The Frillbacks and Jacobins are from Hungary , amounghst both breeds we have white colour individuals and some brown Frillbacks. Rasele de ornament le
